Chapter 522: Summer Palace
It is said that everyone has done Jing Ke once, by their own Yishui River, but some people went to stab Qin, and some people jumped into the river.
Lou Ye tried to make himself look as tragic as possible, as if he wanted to accomplish a great deed for the ages, rather than a comical self-drowning, although it was all a death.
is different from the big team of "Tiangu", "Summer Palace" is pitiful and sad, Lou Ye, Nai An, Guo Xiaodong, Hao Lei, that's all. Of course, he still smiled a little when he saw his old friend.
"How?" Chu Qing asked as soon as he entered the door.
"In the morning, I refused to be tried again." He shook his head.
"Refusal?"
"It's just that they refuse to review, they can't review, and they refuse to give even a comment because they're afraid...... Zhou Jiandong knows, right? β
"Yes."
"He came out to talk to me, saying that the film had technical problems and was not qualified. I asked what the technical problem was, and he said he couldn't see clearly. β
Lou Ye learned the scene at that time, waved his hands and said, "I just can't see clearly, what do you mean by not being able to see clearly?" I still tell you the details, what minutes and seconds can't you see clearly? If we can't watch a film, how do we make a review decision? The movie is supposed to see the picture, and the picture you shoot is not clear, so how do we make a review decision? How do we make review decisions? β
He imitated it like a lonely clown, from loud to murmuring, from dancing to disheartened. This means that "Summer Palace" has completely become an underground movie, and the waiting verdict can only be banned.
ββ¦β¦β
Once upon a time, Chu Qing drank and chatted with Jia Zhangke and Gu Zheng, and scolded three times together! ! ! Now, he only opened his mouth and couldn't spit out half a word.
Because unconsciously, he has changed from a partner to a vested interest under the new film system. For example, "There Are No Thieves in the World", which is the investment profit brought back by the increasingly prosperous market; Another example is "Tengu". Before the policy is liberalized, it is impossible to send it to the exhibition openly.
For a moment, he suddenly felt that he was very despicable and betrayed, so he also lowered his head and remained silent.
"Qingzi, you're different, you're an actor."
Lou Ye seemed to sense Chu Qing's emotions, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You have your job." I have my job, we both love movies, and that's fine. Oh yes, our film schedule is very high, and it will be released tomorrow, so don't you come over. β
"I'm ......," he jerked his head up.
"It's my own business, and now the country is very sensitive, don't worry, I can handle it."
Lou Ye lit a cigarette. Leaned back on the sofa, just like Rotterdam did.
On the 18th, "Summer Palace" was released.
In the hall of 800 people, not a single domestic journalist was seen. All of them are occupied by overseas and Hong Kong and Taiwan media. Because the scale of the film is too big, not only is it fully exposed, but there are also a lot of shots, which makes the well-informed European and American media also surprised.
Audience attitudes are polarized. 80% of people think it's very ordinary, and what they see is only the cry of lust, and there is nothing about the soul. 20% liked it. It is said that the director conveys poetic freedom, and it is a good work that has been rare for many years.
Chu Qing didn't go to the premiere, so he didn't know the specific content, he only learned something from the comments later.
"Screen" calls it a political erotic movie, and those sex* scenes are a mini-revolution: bold and breakthrough, and the characters involved are even more tragic, even more than the green goblin's "Dream of Paris".
These descriptions were too abstract for him to understand, but in the end, the critic quoted a classic line from "Fight Club" to summarize:
"We are a generation forgotten by history, there is no purpose, no status, no war, no economic panic, our big war is a war of hearts, our panic is just our life, we grow up watching TV, hoping that one day we will become a rich man, a star or a rock star, but we will not, that is the reality that we are gradually facing...... We are all numbly playing our social roles and faithfully fulfilling our social responsibilities, when in fact most of us fail to understand what we are striving for - school, work, love, marriage, childbirth, birth, old age, sickness and death, everything is in order. You are just an organism like any other living being, and we are just here to walk through the world, just like any other living being. β
Chu Qing immediately understood what kind of story "Summer Palace" probably told.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"It's been 7 years since "The Devil is Coming", but the first comeback was made for him, what do you think?"
Outside the courtyard of the hotel, with a white fence and a back to the sea, a female reporter was forcing Jiang Wen to question.
"yes, what do I think?"
Old Jiang didn't want to answer, and began to muddle around.
The reporter didn't get stuck, and continued to ask: "Yes, what do you think?" β
"I'm also asking this question, and I ask myself a lot of questions every day, but I can't answer them."
"What questions have you been asking yourself lately?"
"It's boring, you're not going to be interested."
"I'd love to know, why don't you just tell me what question you asked yourself today?"
Yo ho!
Old Jiang blinked his little eyes, this girl is good!
This product likes to deal with smart people, saving trouble, so he continued the topic just now: "Actually, I refused, but I couldn't stand the grandson crying and begging me, I am good anywhere, but I am soft-hearted, you see, I smashed myself!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Qing really wants to kick her, why do you want to be embarrassed?
It's so good that he can't die, and the reporter turned his head and asked, "Is that so?" β
"Uh, yes. I said at the time, I haven't begged you for anything for so many years, so you should help me once. He really couldn't deny it.
Then, the girl asked a few more questions, and the scale was quite good, and Lao Jiang also chatted very happily.
This reporter's name is Fang Yimin, from Nandu, who participated in the press conference of Chu Qing's hacking incident. Since Yuan Lei went to play in "Southern * Weekend", Nandu began to train a successor, and her professional quality is on par with Yuan Lei, but her appearance is higher.
It's been three days since the opening of the film festival, and she is the only fierce person who has grabbed the exclusive in the siege. Do you think, Lao Jiang and Lao Chu are like two door gods, they can choke those reporters to death one by one!
It's not deliberately pretending to be *forced.,It's a talent attribute.,There's no way.γ
It is said that because the style of Cannes last year was too conservative, the competition unit was full of safe card masters, so that it was sprayed for three months. This year, the wind has naturally changed again, only Italy's Moriti, Spain's Almodovar, and the UK's Ken? Rocky and Sweden's Karismaki, plus Jiang Wen, who is half a master, and the other directors are all new dings.
However, they are also purebred, and have either won the CamΓ©ra d'Or, or participated in various training camps and student competitions in Cannes, and the bitter Muggles can only die.
And in the past few days, Chu Qing has been running around cocktail parties and activities, and only took time to watch Almodovar's "The Return", and he likes Penelope Cruz.
Fan Xiaoye was even busier, standing nine times in four days, changing five sets of dresses alone, and his chest was squeezed wider.
The two of them participated in the film festival at the same time, but they couldn't see each other during the day and night, often you slept, I haven't come back, I woke up, you have gone out to work.
Fortunately, on the 21st, the two briefly got together.
It was a modest award ceremony, but the guests in attendance were all, including Jacob, the chairman of the festival, and members of the jury.
Lao Wang was still wearing sunglasses, and when he stepped forward, the French Minister of Culture, Dwable, pinned him with a "Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of the French Republic".
This thing was born in 1957 and is used to commend those international friends, which are divided into three ranks: commander, officer, and knight. It's not worth much, it's a dozen in one batch, but it's a national honor.
After receiving the medal, Wang expressed his gratitude in Mandarin, Cantonese and English, saying that when "In the Mood for Love" was exhibited four years ago, the conference wanted to award it to him, but unfortunately he was too busy at the time.
"Tsk!"
Fan Xiaoye looked at him with envy, stabbed his husband, and asked in a low voice, "Hey, when will you bring one back?" β
"What do you think about Chinese cabbage?"
"Lao Jia can take it, what's wrong with you?" She reached out to pinch.
"Uh-huh, I'll try! I try my best! He immediately confessed.
Fan Xiaoye glanced around, and muttered again: "I'll tell you, Zhou Xun is coming, Lin Jiaxin is also coming, you can be honest with me!" β
(Happy birthday J...... (To be continued......)
